Abstract:
A process for producing polymers by the ionogenic polymerization of lactams is disclosed, wherein the lactam monomer, in the liquid state, mixed with a catalyst and promoter is introduced into a heated mold, which rapidly rotates about an axis outside the mold, via a conduit disposed co-axially with respect to the axis and via a feed channel which extends from the conduit at an angle to the axis and the polymerized, molded object is automatically removed from the mold in a radial direction due to centrifugal force.
